Calculate the energy required to vapourise 50g of water initially at 80oC.[specific heat capacity of water = 2260Jg-1K-1][specific latent heat of vaporisation of water = 2260Jg-1]
-
A.
113,000J -
B.
117,200J -
C.
234,400J -
D.
420,000J
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation
mc(theta) + ML = 50 x 4.2 x 20 + 50 x 2260
= 117,200J
